Happy Halloween from the Ravelos!
I wanted to do a proper update before this one, but I didn’t get a chance, so you’re seeing old faces, new faces, and some old faces that have transformed (that is, “grown up”). Even though NaNo starts tomorrow, I’d like to get the next Ravelo update posted very soon, so keep an eye out. In the meantime, enjoy the following close-ups and have a Happy Halloween!
Oh, and best of luck to the NaNo’ers! I’m ready to start typing like a madwoman tomorrow — how about you?
Great photos! I love all their costumes. Happy halloween and good luck with nano!
What cool costumes! I’m having a bit of trouble working out who everyone is, but i’m sure all will be made clear shortly
Hey Jen, what’s your name on NaNo? Mine’s Dustyn.
Hope to see ya around…
-Dustyn
Wow. Love the costumes.
How’d you get 15 people on a lot AND make them all pose for the picture?
Great Halloween treat the costumes are fantastic!
SWEET! I love them all, but Spiderman…He wins. Great costumes. Good luck on Nano. I’m starting right away. :)
My name on the NaNo site is JenH. Let me know yours and I’ll add you to my Writing Buddy list! (Dustyn, I’ve already added you! Good luck!)
What fabulous photos jen! I love all their costumes and the setting is so great! Awesome job.
Alex – To answer your question, I had to use several cheats. First I put a random Sim on an empty lot. Then I used the boolprop testingcheatsenabled cheat to generate the Tombstone of Life and Death. Using that, I could add everyone I needed to the lot and make them controllable. I turned motive decay off, had them buy clothes, etc. I unlocked the career rewards to get the camera and used that to make them pose. At the end of it all, I made sure not to save the game so that everything would go back the way it was. I learned how to do all of this over on SimShots (there’s a link to some tutorials there, thanks to Amanda!). Very handy!
Oh wow! I LOVE the costumes! Especially the spiderman one!! ^^
One thing though, who is the blonde little girl? She wasn’t one of the 10 Ravelo kids was she?? Is she a new daughter? :o
I cant wait for the next update, and good luck with NaNo!!!
Kath
Hi Kath, the two little girls are Trent and Tristen’s daughters. You’ll get to see more of them in the next update!
Can you tell I’m fidgety at work today? :-D
Great Halloween update! Do you mind if I add your NaNo name (as seenin comments) to my Writing Buddies list? (Mine’s DebC, btw)
Hey DebC! I’m glad you’re doing NaNo, too! I added your name to my writing buddy list. :-) Feel free to add mine to yours. It’ll be fun to check on everyone as the days go by and see how it’s going.
isabelleraymond. My two favorite sims from my sim 1 game. that’s my nano name. :)
Oh yes Spidey is Ethan, the hotness is still evident haha. Wow, i couldnt figure out who most of these people were, but they are all so cute. I know they are in the Ravelo family, but i couldntfigure everything out. Some of the stuff was easy, but most of it was hard. OH AND YESS..GOOD LUCK ON WRITING YOUR THING TODAY! Woohoo. hope you get a great headstart!
Wow Jen, that’s so impressive :) Really hard to tell them apart now that they’ve grown, but anyway, I love those pics and especially the cute facial masks of the two little girls :). I assume that Leda is the one on the first close-up pic in the hawaiian dress – she reminds me SO much of a real-life girl that I know… but I just can’t remember who ;). Ethan is married, wheey! Is it Kaylynn ;)?
I’m a bit stressed at the moment, so I’m net getting much updated aswell.. but I’ll post a tiny little update in a minute, if I don’t forget!. Keep going and good luck on nano!
wow, the family picture looks spectacular!!! i love the costumes and the little girls look adorable!!! :D
I love Spiderman!!
Fabulous pictures Jen! I’m constantly amazed by the work you do!
Good luck with your NaNo writing! I had thought about taking part in it this year, but I’m a bit busy with a new career venture. Hope you have a great time, though and maybe I will join you next year!
@_@ I’m taking my NaNo slowly. My goal is to simply reach 50k words by the end. I don’t care how fast I do it.
Anyway, my name over there is Mieko as well xD so. yea.
Oh and cool picture. The process of taking it seems long and hard though.
What a cool idea. I wish I’d thought of that–and known how to do it! ;-)
Wow this would of taken alot of work to get them all there in costumes and ready for a great family photo! I love it!! The spiderman outfit is my favourite. Great job Jen. I’ll have to go read the next update now. :)
Oh my god! What an amazing update! Great job! I just wanna know one thing…Where did you get the leaves that you can put outside? There great =]
Keep up the good work!
– Tash
Hi Tash, I got the leaves from the J Woods Donation Set. So you have to donate to get them, but it’s for a good cause!
I guess I’m a few days late, and a dollar (just ONE!) short, but I’m going to comment anyway. ^^;;
I love all those costumes! Seriously, they’re awesome! Everyone looks adorable/cool/varying upon their costume! It’s really cool.
I mean, man, the child and toddler are just so gosh-durned cute, I could eat them! Except not. I never did understand the “cute=edible” thing. Hrm.
I also really like that costume with the tiara and dress. Marlee, right?
My NaNoWriMo ID is Mirablu. I added some of the people who posted their IDs, and I’ll probably add a few more later. :D Good luck, all!
*Goes to backtrack through the posts she hasn’t read yet* Starting with Seniority… I kept meaning to read that one, but got distracted. >_>;
